The Lochs of Spiggie and Brow are located west of Boddam in the parish of Dunrossness, in the South Mainland of Shetland, Scotland, about 6 km north of Sumburgh.
[1] The site has also been identified as an Important Bird Area (IBA) by BirdLife International because it supports wintering waterfowl, including whooper swans.
[2] The Loch of Spiggie was historically a voe (Shetland Dialect: fjord or inlet) in which a sand bar formed, cutting off the sea.
The loch supports many species of birds, including lapwing, tufted duck, redshank, snipe and whooper swan.
The remnants of a circular hollow approximately 8.5 metres (28 ft) in diameter can be seen, which is thought to have been the interior lining of the broch.
